Overview

The Centre for Research in Literature, Linguistics and Culture is a multi- and interdisciplinary hub that promotes research innovation across Literary Studies, Linguistics, and Media, Film, and TV Studies. Our work advances new directions in criticism and scholarship, and we work with our partners to develop research that is culturally and socially significant, and publicly valuable. The Centre is comprised of five Research Groups which represent our collaborative and interdisciplinary strengths. The Centre has attracted funding from the AHRC, Arts Council, England, British Academy, ESRC, the Leverhulme Trust, and the Midlands4Cities Doctoral Training Partnership.
